Well, that is not so interesting, and it is pretty common to find new and old dusty parts here, especially coils. Lots of those around and classifying them is a not a task for the faint hearted.

What is of real interest here is the coil number.

J-22-550 (wire gauge 22 at 550 turns) was a very common winding used in many William EM games, mostly on stepper units. Williams used part number A-22-550 which is the same damn thing. So this CCM coil can be substituted to work just as well in EM Williams games and early Stern games as well.

$ 4.00 each - stock up, I know I will.

At that price the coil does not come with a sleeve. If you need some, they are .85/each.

A philosophy of doing shall rule til the days when I can no longer "do" arrive. Because when I am too old to wipe my own ass, adjust an AX relay or relieve a woman from sighing, there will be only memories to fill my time. So, the task at hand is to build a RRSP of memories, come hell or calm tides.

Lots in stock, and again - the first # is the wire guage and the second number the turns. Bally and Williams and Stern used these coil windings, it is just that the wrapper on these N.O.S. coils say C.D.I. (Chicago Dynamic Industries) which I think is kind of cool.

On a side note, I won't be at Alouette tomorrow by exception. (reg schedual is Mon/Wed/Fri), but you can text me, e-mail or PM your questions/requests. Always glad to help members who are clear and cool as Northern running streams. Just give me a little time to answer, I will be on and off the grid tomorrow watching the river flow.

Another elusive little part has been found in the bowels of the parts shelves.

P-7939-1 Bally in-line drop target assy. nut and spring bracket

Well, a picture is worth more than my words right now. Apparently there is a left and a right to this thing, part number above is for the left one, and as you can see just above that there are two sides to this story.

More weirdness found upstairs of the parts dept. near the bingo machine graveyard.

Yes it is a ball arch gate assembly, I was just wondering if anyone knows for which game. This lonesome thing has got some kind of guard spot welded on at exactly the same angle on all 5 units which I have found here so far. The guard is made of steel, not spring steel, so I assume is was to prevent a ball from getting into a lane below the guard.

I forgot about this thread.I'm slowly getting my prototype Bally Heavy Metal Meltdown back to its former glory and one of the biggest hacks on this machine are the flipper mechs.The right one has been completely replaced with a gottlieb mech. Would love to get a right side Bally flipper mech and two correct coils if you have any.

Other smaller needs include the white plastic tub that covers the on/off switch from inside on these older Bally games.

And... the black plastic "cup" that the main power cord feeds through on the back of most system 11 machines would be a great find too!

Thanks Robert!

Hey Drano - chances are good that I will be in T.O. for the Church's swap meet.

Part numbers for your flipper requests (plates and coils) would be appreciated, makes the likelihood of getting the wrong parts less likely since this is Bally/Midway weirdness. I think that they were still using in-line flipper assemblies I would guess. Coil number would be your standard AQ25-500/34-4500, please confirm.

I can figure out the "tubs" & "cups" from your description.

On another note -

Found a whack of these as well, all N.O.S. - I can sell these for $ 5.00 each.

Sorry Robert.For the life of me I could not find the Flipper coil designation in the manual. They just give a part # for the entire assembly with no specifciation for the coil. It's this one (for the right one anyway)

The coil number would likely be the one I mentioned, so if you need just the flipper base mounting plate plate and coil, I have both here. If you need the whole flipper assembly with the parts mounted on the plate, I think I have one as well.

Thanks Robert.Yes, in-line for sure. They look just like what I've got in Fathom.

The coils are the main things but yes, the bracket would be a big help. If you have other parts for that assembly (coil stop, plunger, lever etc..) I'll take as much as you have. But, worst case, I may have old ones kicking around that can be refurbished if necessary. I like to squirrel stuff like that away

Rob, I will take those Stern assemblies, and was wondering if I can order a set of 3 drop targets for a Gottlieb Totem... the yellow ones with the "explosion" graphic in the middle. Steve Young has them...

I'm swinging by Rob and will pick them up sometime after lunch Friday. I also have a list of parts to order and an Alouette gift certificate from my wife.

I know that this feeling is probably silly at this stage of my life, but I still get a 'fizz' when I receive parts. The best thing about buying parts to me these days is that I get to sell them to people who are more thrilled by the hobby than the business.

Williams P/N A-19514 just arrived, 16 of the buggers out of which 4 are reserved for my philosophical pinball pal Ballyhoo - I can still price them @ 25$/ea + tx(CAD) for now, despite the freakin' wild & crude assed Trump dollar.
